Yeah the n75 is the boost control valve up by the maf/ tip

The throttle body will realign itself after so many miles but obviously just be careful when cleaning ie. don't push the butterfly valve.

If you leave the tb connected and turn the ignition one click, leave something on the accelerator and it will open the butterfly valve to get both sides. Much easier/ better clean to actually take it off the mani though.

The AUQ TB won't realign itself, it needs resetting with vagcom.

My bad, I thought that the DBW cars did realign.

Alright so been told loads of different things regarding my fault code 16486. Took it garage they couldnt find any leaks etc and with the problem being intermitent they reckon its down to maf(recently replaced for bosch new) or the wiring to the maf. Before i take it an auto electrician could anybody give me any advice or help ?

Gonna replace the thermostat tonight as my cars rarely been gettin to 90 could this be related ? Would like to do a throttle body clean but i dont have vagcom

Cheers jake

unplug the MAF and see if it feels any better, that'll be the best way to see if its shot
